I contend the extreme you've presented might be untenable. It would require the legislature to sit down for years to sort through all the BS such as this beauty, which would require cops on the bus policing the common cold.

There is a level of individual responsibility and ownership from those who choose which laws to enforce. The way law is written, no one would be able to walk down the street without violating multiple. What we choose to enforce is what matters.

/u/corn-tortilla, so you're saying that Jeff Sessions has no culpability for making marijuana enforcement a priority? Shouldn't he be held accountable?

Sessions isn't an elected official. He is tasked with enforcing our laws. He decided marijuana was a priority to enforce. We should be angry at both unjust laws, and the individuals abusing them via enforcement.

You have a point, but if the law is unjust then should it be upheld only because it is law? America has two great examples that came before pot: booze and slaves.

I'm all for following the law, but people are being jailed and their lives are being ruined now. People are hurt, or die, needlessly. You should get mad at the law and change it. Something can be done now, and we're doing it.

That's a pretty good argument. I guess there isn't much that could be done without a change in Federal law. An enforcement scenario could bring a court case, but that has no guarantees and could come from any angle.

As a state, we can continue to do what we're doing in protest. I do disagree with one point: we can and should be angry at someone enforcing this law; they're not absolved due to their position.

I'm not an expert, but I have bought used and helped a few friends do the same. It varies a great deal by region and season. A $300 used road bike might be right for summer in Seattle and too high for summer in Austin.

What common, everyday necessities, drastically shot up in cost again? Can you back it up, or is it probably inflation? Groceries, gas, and housing hasn't drastically increased due to the minimum wage increase.

I recently bought a ukulele instead of a guitar. My thought process mirrored the article when I was deciding between guitar and ukulele. A nice electric guitar was in my budget and the second-hand market is strong here, but I went another direction.

I went into my local music store and wanted to emulate the "heroes I grew up with", but it just wasn't my music. I didn't grow up with The Beatles and Clapton; my parents did. I looked at the wall of beautiful guitars and respected then, but decided there's little point anymore.

Instead I walked out with a ukulele. It was great quality for the cost, classes were less expensive, and the learning curve has been nice for a working professional. It fits in my apartment, actually two now, in less space than a single electric setup. It costs less and fits my time constraints while producing amazing results.

I think the real question is why guitar when more realistic options exist for not people's musical abilities, time, and budget? It wasn't the cost that stopped me; it was the allure.

With how much signs cost, it might have been cheaper to make it level.

On a serious note: less experienced cyclists, younger folks, and tourists are likely going to miss a sign. If motor vehicles had to drive over a multi-inch bump on 520 they'd be pretty unhappy with just a sign too.
